An X-ray apparatus, having a C-arm X-ray device with at least one electrically operable component that is arranged at a C-arm that is adjustable relative to a holding mechanism, has an arrangement disposed in or at the C-bend or the component and are connected to the component for the transmission of data and/or energy, and another arrangement for the transmission of energy that are disposed in or at a housing connected to the holding mechanism. The exchange of data and/or the transmission of energy between these arrangements ensues in contactless fashion, and the transmission of the data and/or of the energy ensues continuously.

A radiography device has an X-ray source and an X-ray reciever that are each arranged to be moved freely in space at a robot arm respective robots having a number of arms that can be displaced relative to one another by motor-drive. A central control unit controls the displacement of the robot arms of the two robots such that the X-ray source is always oriented to the X-ray receiver for producing an X-ray exposure.

Radiography device

A radiography device has a support mechanism at which an X-ray source, and an X-ray receiver are mounted, the support mechanism being displaceable relative to a component of the radiography device. The radiography device is provided with a device operating assembly which is arranged at the support mechanism. The radiography device can also has a device operating part in the form of an operating handle at the support mechanism.

A medical treatment and supply center with a treatment location has a number of medical devices and systems, with at least some of the medical devices and systems as well as their assemblies, subsystems and components are arranged in a central magazine and can be transferred therefrom to the desired treatment location by at least one automatic conveyor.

Medical treatment and supply center

A medical apparatus has a patient support table with a seating surface and a mounting side, the apparatus having at least one apparatus part. At least one of the apparatus part or the patient support table (or the seating surface thereof) is adjustable relative to the other so that the apparatus part and the patient support table assume a mounting position wherein those regions of the apparatus part that have a distance of less than 100 cm from the seating surface measured in vertical direction, are spaced from the edge of the patient support table that limits the mounting side no closer than 40 cm measured horizontally and transversely relative to the edge.

Medical apparatus permitting unimpeded patient access to the patient

A therapy station for treatment of a patient with focused acoustic waves has a source of focused acoustic waves attached to a source carrier, an x-ray carrier carrying an x-ray locating system, and a support table for the patient. The x-ray carrier is pivotably attached to the source carrier so as to be pivotable relative to the source of acoustic waves and such that the central ray of the x-ray locating system always proceeds through the focus of the focused acoustic waves, and the source carrier is adjustable relative to the support table in a plane.
